Abstract
An electronic auscultation system and method for simulating sounds arising from human organs for use in an anatomical simulation device including a patient simulating mannequin torso, a plurality of electro-magnetic transmitters having antenna coils positioned in predetermined locations relative to said torso beneath the torso surface and each transmitter being connected to one or more computer sound cards which, upon activation, generate signals from prerecorded sound data which generates the appropriate sounds of human organs based on the transmitter location. The system utilizes a simulated stethoscope that includes a receiver and/or sensing triggering devices so that the stethoscope can determine particular areas on the torso to define the appropriate sound generated such that the system knows where the stethoscope is.
